Tennis, Shmennis

Being a volleyball player, I’ve had to deal with years of people, you know, not caring about my sport. It’s somewhat insulting but, quite frankly it’s helped mold me into the elitist that I am today. So this just kinda pisses me off:

How the hell else were we supposed to coerce interest? It was a matter of survival, people. And now you’re telling me we’re going to have call next game while we wait on a bunch of racket-toting ATP wannabes? Horseshit.

The beach is our place to shine, so back off, Buffy.
